Abstract 


Four new species of the lichen genus Diorygma from China are described based on mor- 
phological, chemical, and phylogenetic evidence. Phylogenetic analyses were conduct- 
ed using both RAXML and Bayesian posterior probability inference, based on combined 
LSU and mtSSU sequences. The characteristic compounds were analyzed by colorimet- 
ric reactions and thin-layer chromatography. Diorygma guizhouense is characterized 
by small apothecia, a narrow to slightly open disc covered with white pruina, and the 
presence of stictic, salazinic, and norstictic acids. Diorygma leigongshanense is char- 
acterized by small, oval apothecia, a disc surrounded by entire, raised, and widely open 
thalline margins covered with thin, pale yellowish pruina, and the same chemical sub- 
stances as D. guizhouense. Diorygma locitonitrus is distinguished by the presence of sal- 
azinic acid and hyaline, richly muriform ascospores, notably with distinctly smaller pe- 
ripheral cells compared to the central cells. Diorygma weii is characterized by stellately 
branched apothecia with a closed to slit-like disc, a milky white thallus tinged with green, 
and the presence of only norstictic acid. Detailed morphological descriptions and illus- 
trations of the new species are provided, along with a comprehensive species checklist 
highlighting the diagnostic characteristics of the known species in this genus. 


Key words: 4 new species, lichenized fungi, morphology, muriform, phylogeny 


Introduction 


Diorygma was described by Eschweiler (1824), who mentioned Opegrapha hi- 
eroglyphica as a member of this genus but did not formally designate it as the 
type species. Later, Staiger (2002) synonymized Opegrapha hieroglyphica as 
Diorygma hieroglyphicum and designated it as the lectotype for Diorygma. The 
genus is widely distributed, primarily in tropical regions, and often thrives on 
the sheltered or overhanging sides of trees (Staiger 2002; Kalb et al. 2004). It 
is characterized by a crustose, white to pale olive-green thallus and lirelliform 
to irregularly rounded ascomata with a pruinose disc. The exciple is uncarbon-

ized or slightly carbonized, and the hymenium is hyaline, not inspersed, with 
branched or anastomosing paraphyses that have a thick gelatinous wall. The 
asci are clavate and contain 1-8 spores. The ascospores are hyaline (rarely 
brownish), transversely septate to mostly muriform (Li and Jia 2016). Chem- 
ically, the genus produces compounds such as norstictic acid, stictic acid, or 
the protocetraric acid complex (Kalb et al. 2004; Aptroot et al. 2023). 

Kalb et al. (2004) provided a monograph on the genus Diorygma, which in- 
cluded 24 recognized species, a detailed taxonomic key, and a phylogenetic tree 
based on LSU sequences. Subsequently, Sharma and Makhija (2009a, 2009b) 
described four additional species characterized by the presence of norstictic 
and salazinic acids as the major secondary metabolites. Later, Sharma and 
Khadilkar (2012) reported four more new species from India, two of which 
exclusively contain norstictic and salazinic acids. Feuerstein et al. (2014) ex- 
panded the diversity of the genus by describing three new species and provid- 
ing a revised global key encompassing 52 species. Numerous additional taxa 
have been discovered and reported, further increasing diversity (Caceres 2007; 
Makhija et al. 2009; Sharma and Makhija 2009a; Lima et al. 2013; Feuerstein et 
al. 2014; Sutjaritturakan et al. 2014; Aptroot et al. 2023, 2024). According to the 
latest phylogenetic research by Ansil et al. (2023), D. dandeliense B.O. Sharma 
& Khadilkar is a synonym of D. karnatakense B.O. Sharma & Khadilkar. Currently, 
89 species of the genus Diorygma are recognized worldwide (Table 2). Molecu- 
lar data for 15 known species and 4 novel species are available (Table 1). 

During a field survey of lichens in Guizhou Province, we discovered several 
specimens that formed phylogenetically distinct clades within Diorygma. Fol- 
lowing detailed morphological and chemical analyses and comparison with all 
known species, we propose these as four new species. 


Material and methods 
Sample collection and morphological observations 


Specimens were collected from the Leigong Shan National Nature Reserve in Leis- 
han County and the Yueliangshan Nature Reserve in Congjiang County, Guizhou 
Province, China. All voucher specimens are deposited in the Lichen Herbarium of 
the Kunming Institute of Botany (KUN-L), Chinese Academy of Sciences, Yunnan, 
China. External morphological characteristics of the thallus and ascomata were 
examined using a stereomicroscope (OLYMPUS SZX16, Japan) and photographed 
with a fitted digital camera (AOR B32, China). Anatomical features, including the 
exciple, hymenium, paraphyses, asci, and ascospores, were observed using a light 
microscope (OLYMPUS BX53, Japan) based on hand-cut longitudinal sections of 
apothecia manually prepared with a razor blade. The sections were immersed in 
distilled water, and images were captured with a digital camera (OLYMPUS DP72, 
Japan). Lugol's iodine solution (I) was used to stain and examine the hymenium. 
Photographic plates were assembled using Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 (Adobe 
Systems, USA). Measurements were conducted using ImageJ software (v. 1.50d) 
and are presented as (min-—) (x — SD) — (x + SD) (—max), where x is the arithmetic 
mean and SD is the standard deviation (rounded to the nearest 0.5 um), followed 
by the number of observations (n) when n = 10. The terms ‘min’ and ‘max’ repre- 
sent the extreme values observed (Zhurbenko and Diederich 2024).

ethanol (P). Lichen substances were analyzed by thin-layer chromatography 
(TLC) using the solvent C system (formic acid/acetic acid, v/v = 200/30) (Cul- 
berson 1972). 


DNA extraction, PCR amplification, and sequencing 


Genomic DNA was directly extracted from apothecia using a fungal genomic 
DNA extraction kit (Solarbio, China), following the manufacturer’s protocol. Mi- 
tochondrial small subunit rRNA (mtSSU) sequences were amplified using the 
primer pairs mrSSU1/mrSSU3R, while large subunit ribosomal DNA (LSU) se- 
quences were amplified using the primer pairs LR5/LROR and AL2R/LR6 (Vil- 
galys and Hester 1990; Zoller et al. 1999; Mangold et al. 2008; Kraichak et al. 
2015). Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed using a Bio-RAD T-100 
thermal cycler in 25 uL reaction volumes, consisting of 12.5 uL of 2x PCR Mix 
(including dNTPs mix, Solarbio, China), 8 pL of double-distilled water (ddH,0), 
1.0 uL of each 10 mM primer, and 2.5 pL of DNA template. The PCR conditions 
were as follows: an initial denaturation at 95 °C for 5 minutes, followed by 38 
cycles of denaturation at 94 °C for 45 seconds, annealing at 50 °C for 60 sec- 
onds (for mtSSU) or 55 °C for 60 seconds (for LSU), and extension at 72 °C for 
90 seconds, with a final extension at 72 °C for 10 minutes and held at 12 °C 
(Kraichak et al. 2015). The PCR products were visualized by 1% agarose gel 
electrophoresis and subsequently sequenced by Beijing Tsingke Biotech Co., 
Ltd. (Chongqing, China). 


Phylogenetic analyses 


The sequencing results were evaluated by analyzing chromatograms using 
BioEdit Sequence Alignment software (version 7.0.9.0). Forward and reverse 
sequences were assembled using ContigExpress software (version 6.0.620.0). 
Preliminary taxonomic affiliation and potential sample contamination were 
confirmed by BLASTn searches on the NCBI website (https://blast.ncbi.nIm. 
nih.gov/Blast.cgi). Newly generated sequences were deposited in GenBank 
(Table 1). Additional sequences used for ingroup analysis were retrieved from 
the NCBI website (https://www.ncbi.nim.nih.gov), and Glyphis cicatricosa was 
selected as the outgroup (Ansil et al. 2023). Phylogenetic analyses were con- 
ducted using the OFPT program (Zeng et al. 2023), following its protocol: each 
gene region dataset was initially aligned using the ‘auto’ strategy (based on 
data size) in MAFFT (Katoh and Standley 2013) and subsequently trimmed us- 
ing the ‘gappyout’ method (based on gap distribution) in TrimAl (Capella-Guti- 
érrez et al. 2009). Single-gene phylogenetic trees were constructed using the 
IQ-TREE Web Server (http://iqtree.cibiv.univie.ac.at/) to confirm well-supported 
branches. The best-fit nucleotide substitution models for each dataset were 
selected based on the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) from 22 common 
DNA substitution models with rate heterogeneity, using ModelFinder (Kalyaana- 
moorthy et al. 2017). All datasets were concatenated with partition information 
for subsequent phylogenetic analyses. Maximum likelihood (ML) analysis was 
performed using ultrafast bootstrap approximation (Hoang et al. 2018), com- 
bined with the SH-like approximate likelihood ratio test (SH-aLRT) (Guindon et 
al. 2010) in IQ-TREE (Nguyen et al. 2015). The consensus tree was summarized

based on the extended majority rule. Additionally, ML analysis was conducted 
using RAXML-HPC2 on ACCESS (version 8.2.12) in the CIPRES Science Gate- 
way (https://www.phylo.org/portal2/login!input.action) with the GTRGAMMA 
model and a rapid bootstrap analysis of 1000 replicates (Miller et al. 2010; Sta- 
matakis 2014). Bayesian inference was performed using MrBayes (Ronquist 
et al. 2012), with two parallel Metropolis-coupled Markov Chain Monte Carlo 
runs (one ‘cold’ chain and three heated chains), sampling trees every 1000 
generations. The run was automatically terminated when the average standard 
deviation of split frequencies dropped below 0.01, and the resulting tree was 
summarized after discarding the first 25% of samples as burn-in. The resulting 
trees were visualized in FigTree v1.4.4 and further edited in Adobe Illustrator 
CC 2019. The new taxon was registered in Index Fungorum (2025) and Faces 
of Fungi (Jayasiri et al. 2015). 


Result 
Phylogenetic analyses 


The final dataset comprised 22 taxa and 39 strains/vouchers, with 1562 aligned 
characters including gaps (LSU: 760 bp; mtSSU: 802 bp). The RAxML tree was 
constructed with a final ML optimization likelihood value of -6039.173664. The 
parameters for the GTR+I+G model of combined LSU and mtSSU were as fol- 
lows: estimated base frequencies—A = 0.29, C = 0.19, G = 0.27, T = 0.25; substi- 
tution rates—AC = 0.66, AG = 2.55, AT = 1.69, CG = 0.76, CT = 7.83, and GT = 1.00. 
Bayesian posterior probabilities from MCMC analysis showed a final average 
standard deviation of split frequencies of 0.009999. The topologies from both 
ML and Bayesian analyses were verified manually and largely concurred (Fig. 1). 

Fourteen known species of Diorygma formed a well-supported clade in the 
phylogenetic tree. Three new species-—D. leigongshanense, D. locitonitrus, and 
D. guizhouense-clustered in a clade with D. tiantaiense Z.F. Jia, with strong 
support. In contrast, Diorygma weil was related to D. karnatakense, but this rela- 
tionship received low support.

Wei Wu et al.: Diorygma from China 


Chemistry. Thallus K+ reddish brown, C-, KC+ orange, P+ yellow, TLC: stictic 
acid, salazinic acid, norstictic acid. 

Material examined. CHINA, * Guizhou Province, Congjiang County, Yueliang- 
shan Nature Reserve, 25°20'8.56'N, 108°36'19.23"E, 987 m elev., 24 Oct. 2023, 
Ze Yang & Bo Liu, Y400 (holotype KUN-L 0093724). 

Notes. The new species Diorygma guizhouense is characterized by lirelliform 
apothecia, which are erumpent with a narrow to slightly open disc covered by 
a white pruina. The exciple is uncarbonized, the hymenium is hyaline, not in- 
spersed, and reacts I+ blue-violet. The ascospores, one per ascus, are hyaline, 
richly muriform, with peripheral and central spore locules of approximately 
equal size, containing 24-32 x 5-12 locular, measuring 125-179 x 36-58 um, 
I-. Chemically, this species contains stictic, salazinic, and norstictic acids. 

Phylogenetic analysis based on combined LSU and mtSSU sequence data in- 
dicates that D. guizhouense is closely related to Diorygma tiantaiense (Fig. 1). A 
comparison with D. tiantaiense reveals a 0.97% nucleotide difference in the LSU re- 
gion (7/723 bp). Morphologically, D. guizhouense differs by having a narrowly open 
disc (vs. fully open) and chemically by having a hymenium that reacts I+ blue-violet 
(vs. I-). According to the TLC result, the new species contains stictic and salazinic 
acids rather than only norstictic acid in D. tiantaiense (Cui et al. 2024). 

According to the taxonomic key provided by Feuerstein et al. (2014), 
D. guizhouense is morphologically similar to D. dandeliense, which was later syn- 
onymized to D. karnatakense (Ansil et al. 2023). However, D. guizhouense and 
D. karnatakense occupy distinct clades in the phylogenetic tree, supporting their 
separation at the species level. Chemotaxonomically, TLC analysis shows that 
D. guizhouense contains stictic, salazinic, and norstictic acids, whereas D. karna- 
takense lacks stictic acid, and the ascospores of D. guizhouense exhibit a negative 
iodine reaction (I-), in contrast to the I+ violet reaction reported in related species 
(Ansil et al. 2023). The nucleotide comparison reveals clear differences between 
the two species: 4.28% (31/725 bp) for LSU and 3.45% (25/725 bp) for mtSSU.

Material examined. CHINA, * Guizhou Province, Leishan County, Leigong 
Mountain National Nature Reserve, 26°22'43.16'N, 108°11'42.65'E, 1681 melev., 
on bark, 27 Oct. 2023, Ze Yang & Bo Liu, LGS207 (holotype KUN-L 0093725). 

Notes. This species is characterized by its erumpent lirelliform apothecia, 
with discs surrounded by entire, raised thalline margins that are widely open 
and covered with a thin, pale yellowish pruina. The exciple is uncarbonized, and 
the hymenium is hyaline, non-inspersed, and I-. Spores are single per ascus, 
hyaline, richly muriform, with peripheral and central spore locules of approx- 
imately equal size, 20-42 x 5-10 locular, measuring 119-170 x 27-46 um. 
Chemically, this species contains stictic, salazinic, and norstictic acids. 

Phylogenetic analysis based on combined LSU and mtSSU sequence data 
places D. leigongshanense as closely related to Diorygma tiantaiense (Fig. 1). 
However, Diorygma leigongshanense differs chemically by the presence of stic- 
tic and salazinic acids (vs. only containing norstictic acid). Morphologically, 
D. leigongshanense has lirelliform apothecia, in contrast to the oval, open, and 
raised ascocarps of D. tiantaiense (Cui et al. 2024). 

Diorygma leigongshanense is morphologically similar to D. rufopruinosum 
(A.W. Archer) Kalb, Staiger & Elix. However, it can be distinguished by its asco- 
spore septation pattern: in D. leigongshanense, the peripheral cells and central 
cells are of similar size, whereas in D. rufopruinosum, the peripheral cells are 
noticeably smaller. Diorygma leigongshanense contains stictic, salazinic, and 
norstictic acids, while D. rufopruinosum produces protocetraric acid and lacks 
stictic acid (Kalb et al. 2004). 

Morphologically, Diorygma leigongshanense also shares similarities with 
D. chumphonense Sutjaritturakan & K. Kalb, but it can be distinguished by hav- 
ing longer ascospores (119-170 um vs. 95-110 um), peripheral cells of equal 
size to the central ones (vs. peripheral cells distinctly smaller), lacking stictic 
acid (vs. presence), and the I- (vs. I+ blue-violet) (Sutjaritturakan et al. 2014).

on bark, 27 Oct. 2023, Ze Yang & Bo Liu, LGS256-1 (holotype KUN-L 0093723). 

Notes. This species is characterized by its lirelliform apothecia, which are 
erumpent with narrow to open discs covered by a white pruina; the exciple is 
uncarbonized, and the hymenium is hyaline, not inspersed, and reacts I+ weakly 
blue-violet. The ascospores, one per ascus, are hyaline, richly muriform, with 
peripheral cells distinctly smaller than central ones, containing 26-40 x 6-15 
locular, measuring 117-189 x 33-60 um, I-. Chemically, this species contains 
constictic, salazinic, and norstictic acids. 

Phylogenetic analysis based on combined LSU and mtSSU sequence data 
places Diorygma locitonitrus as closely related to D. tiantaiense (Fig. 1). Howev- 
er, nucleotide comparison of the LSU reveals a difference between D. /ocitoni- 
trus of 0.80% (6/758 bp) between the two species. The new taxon is chemically 
distinct from the presence of both norstictic and salazinic acids, while D. tian- 
taiense contains only norstictic acid. In addition, the hymenium of D. locitoni- 
trus exhibits a weakly I+ blue-violet reaction in Lugol's solution, in contrast to 
the I- reaction in D. tiantaiense (Cui et al. 2024). 

Diorygma locitonitrus is morphologically similar to D. chumphonense but dif- 
fers in the larger ascospores (117-189 x 33-60 um vs. 95-110 x 37-40 pm) 
and the iodine reaction of the hymenium (I-, vs. + weakly violet). Additionally, 
the ascospores of D. /ocitonitrus are |-, in contrast to the I+ violet reaction ob- 
served in D. chumphonense (Sutjaritturakan et al. 2014).

bark, 25 Oct. 2023, Ze Yang & Bo Liu, Coll. No. LGS57 (holotype KUN-L 0093727). 

Notes. This new species is characterized by its lirelliform apothecia, which 
are prominent with a closed-to-slit-like disc covered by a thin white pruina. The 
exciple is uncarbonized, and the hymenium is hyaline, not inspersed, and reacts 
I+ violet. Spores are single per ascus, hyaline, richly muriform, with peripheral 
and central spore locules of approximately equal size, 24-28 x 6-9 locular, 
measuring 73-119 x 18-35 um, I+ violet. Chemically, this species contains 
only norstictic acid. 

Phylogenetic analysis based on the combined data of LSU and mtSSU sequenc- 
es indicates that D. weii forms a clade with D. karnatakense (Fig. 1). However, 
nucleotide divergence in mtSSU between the two species is 3.52% (23/653 bp). 
Morphologically, D. weii has asci containing a single spore, versus 1—8-spored 
asci in D. karnatakense. Chemically, D. weii only produces norstictic acid, whereas 
D. karnatakense contains both norstictic and salazinic acids (Ansil et al. 2023). 

Diorygma weii shares morphological similarities with Diorygma inaequale 
and D. dealbatum B.O. Sharma & Makhija. However, both D. inaequale and 
D. dealbatum contain both salazinic and norstictic acids, whereas the new spe- 
cies produces only norstictic acid (Sharma and Makhija 2009a). 


Discussion 


Morphological features and chemical compounds are generally used in the 
classification of Diorygma species (Kalb et al. 2004). Chemically, most species 
exhibit remarkable diversity in secondary metabolites—such as norstictic acid, 
stictic acid, cryptostictic acid, and protocetraric acid—which serve as key tax- 
onomic markers. Typically, a single species produces one or several of these 
characteristic metabolites (Kalb et al. 2004). With the rapid advancement of 
molecular technologies, phylogenetic analyses have become an indispensable 
tool in species identification and evolutionary studies. Molecular data provide 
objective genetic evidence that enables the precise differentiation of morpho- 
logically similar or cryptic species, help clarify taxonomic uncertainties includ- 
ing synonymies, and facilitate the discovery of new taxa. Phenotypic charac- 
teristics alone are sometimes insufficient for resolving taxonomic ambiguities 
due to environmental influences and developmental stage. In contrast, genetic 
data are relatively stable. DNA sequences from LSU and mtSSU are usually 
considered reliable molecular markers, and phylogenetic trees based on these 
genes can confirm the monophyletic nature of species defined by morphology 
and correct misclassifications caused by overlapping features of sporangia or 
ascospores within Diorygma (Cui et al. 2024; Aptroot et al. 2023). Therefore, 
this study adopts an integrative taxonomic approach, combining phylogenet-

ic analyses, morphological characteristics, and chemical profiling to achieve a 
comprehensive and accurate classification of new Diorygma species. 

Most Diorygma species have stable phylogenetic positions with stronger sta- 
tistical support in multigene datasets than in single-gene analyses (Ansil et al. 
2023). The phylogenetic tree based on LSU + mtSSU sequence data provided 
high-resolution species delimitation within Diorygma. Diorygma guizhouense, 
D. leigongshanense, and D. locitonitrus formed a highly supported clade (ML/ 
PP = 90/0.90) with D. tiantaiense. Although D. weii and D. karnatakense formed 
a distinct clade, this relationship received weak support (ML/PP < 70/0.90). All 
four proposed species occupy distinct phylogenetic positions. 

Approximately 90 Diorygma species are currently recognized and categorized 
by ascospore number into two morphological groups (Table 2). Among the 38 
monosporate species, our four new taxa all belong to this group. Thirteen mono- 
sporate species produce salazinic acid—a feature shared by D. guizhouense and 
D. leigongshanense. These two species are further distinguished by co-occurring 
salazinic and stictic acids, a combination previously documented only in D. an- 
gusticarpum Sutjaritturakan & Kalb and D. salazinicum Sutjaritturakan & Kalb. 

Morphological and chemical comparisons reveal that D. guizhouense can 
be distinguished from D. angusticarpum by its larger ascospores (125-179 x 
36-58 um vs. 90-110 x 30-37 um) and the presence of norstictic acid (vs. 
cryptostictic acid) (Sutjaritturakan et al. 2014). Additionally, D. guizhouense dif- 
fers from D. salazinicum in having a narrower disc (vs. widely opened discs), a 
weakly I+ blue-violet hymenium reaction (vs. I-), and the presence of norstictic 
acid (vs. cryptostictic acid) (Sutjaritturakan et al. 2014). 

Comparative analysis reveals that D. leigongshanense exhibits unique diag- 
nostic features when contrasted with similar species. Compared to D. angus- 
ticarpum, the new species displays markedly larger ascospores (119-170 x 
27-46 um vs. 90-110 x 30-37 um), a distinctly broader disc (vs. slit-like), an 
I- hymenium (vs. I+ violet), and contains norstictic acid (vs. cryptostictic acid) 
(Sutjaritturakan et al. 2014). These chemical and morphological differences 
also distinguish D. leigongshanense from D. salazinicum, particularly in the io- 
dine reaction patterns of the ascospores (I- vs. I+ violet) and secondary metab- 
olite profiles (norstictic acid vs. cryptostictic acid) (Sutjaritturakan et al. 2014). 

Taxonomic evaluation of ascospore septation (cell size) in monosporate 
Diorygma species revealed two distinct morphological types: those with pe- 
ripheral cells smaller than central cells and those with cells of equal size. The 
newly described D. locitonitrus possesses the former pattern, a characteristic 
shared with nine other monosporate species. Notably, only three previously 
documented species—D. reniforme (Fée) Kalb, Staiger & Elix, D. rufopruinosum, 
and D. salvadoriense Kalb, Staiger & Elix—exhibit both this septation pattern 
and the presence of salazinic acid. Diorygma locitonitrus can be distinguished 
from these chemically similar species by the absence of protocetraric acid (vs. 
present in D. reniforme and D. rufopruinosum) and the absence of pycnidia (vs. 
present in D. salvadoriense) (Kalb et al. 2004). These consistent differences in 
secondary metabolite profiles and reproductive structures provide robust crite- 
ria for delimiting D. locitonitrus from related taxa. 

Among monosporate Diorygma species, seven taxa—D. australasicum (Elix) 
Licking, Elix & A.W. Archer, D. isabellinum (Zahlbr.) Z.F. Jia & Liicking, D. longil- 
irellatum B.O. Sharma & Makhija, D. roseopruinatum Papong, Lucking & Parn-

men, D. soozanum (Zahlbr.) M. Nakan. & Kashiw., D. spilotum (Stirt.) Pushpi 
Singh & Kr.P. Singh, and D. tiantaiense—exclusively produce norstictic acid (Ta- 
ble 2), warranting detailed comparison with D. weii, which shares this chemical 
profile. Diorygma weii is distinguished by its unique thallus morphology (milky 
white with a slight greenish tint) and apothecial features (stellately branched 
with closed to slit-like discs). Key diagnostic characters that distinguish D. weii 
from related species include: (1) From D. roseopruinatum by thallus color (milky 
white vs. light grey), and disc exposure and pruinosity (closed, slit-like white 
pruinose vs. narrow brown with pink-red pruina) (Papong et al. 2014); (2) From 
D. australasicum by the absence of isidia (Archer and Elix 2009); (3) From D. 
spilotum by branching of lirellae (prominent stellately branched vs. simple im- 
mersed) and disc pruinosity (white pruinose vs. epruinose) (Singh and Singh 
2017); (4) From D. isabellinum by branching of lirellae (stellately vs. single/rare- 
ly branched) and iodine reaction (I+ violet hymenium vs. I-) (Jia and Liicking 
2017); (5) From D. longilirellatum by thallus color (milky white vs. greenish-grey) 
and disc exposure (closed vs. slightly open) (Sharma and Makhija 2009b); (6) 
From D. tiantaiense by smaller ascospores (73-119 x 18-35 um vs. 120-210 x 
35-60 um), disc exposure (closed vs. open), and iodine reactions (I+ violet vs. 
I- for both hymenium and ascospores) (Cui et al. 2024); (7) From D. soozanum 
by narrower ascospores (73-119 x 18-35 um vs. 110-140 x 35-45 um) and 
disc exposure (closed vs. initially narrow then wide) (Kalb et al. 2004). 

This study describes four new species of the lichen genus Diorygma from Chi- 
na. Each species exhibits distinctive morphological features and secondary me- 
tabolite profiles, confirmed through colorimetric tests and thin-layer chromatog- 
raphy. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of Diorygma diversity 
in China and underscore the value of combining traditional taxonomy with mo- 
lecular and chemotaxonomic approaches. A comprehensive species checklist is 
also provided to aid in the identification and comparison of known Diorygma taxa.
